Mining Stock Education · “Our Planalto Copper Project will be a Mine” explains Lara Exploration CEO Simon Ingram

Lara Exploration (TSXV:LRA — OTC:LRAXF) President and CEO Dr. Simon Ingram provides an update focused on the company’s recently closed C$33M (about US$25M) financing at C$3/share with no warrants. Ingram says the funding provides several years of runway to advance the Planalto copper-gold open-pit project from PEA toward feasibility by drilling the resource (moving inferred/indicated toward indicated/measured) and completing technical and environmental studies. A European copper producer, Atalaya Mining, invested at the corporate level for a 7% stake with no special rights, alongside other institutions, and management also participated. Ingram stated his belief that the Planalto project will be a copper mine and is currently undervalued, which presents a compelling investment proposition. Near-term catalysts include ongoing drill results and follow-up drilling on the Silica Cap trend into the Atlantica license, targeting potentially higher-grade copper mineralization.
